Dame Vera Lynn
A tribute to The Forces Sweetheart
​
Be swept back in time with this incredible show honouring the Forces Sweetheart. This heart warming production runs for 70 minutes with exceptional musicians bringing to life the music from the 40's - 60's with a couple of surprises along the way.
​
The show starts with a 20 minute 'live BBC broadcast' bringing back to life the energy and environment of when the boys were out in the field. Then it moves into a concert of insightful facts and beautiful music that will have you laugh, cry and sing along.
Reviews!
Victoria does a fantastic portrayal of Vera Lynn. She takes you on a journey from Vera's very beginnings through her famous BBC Radio shows singing to the troops in WW2 including reading letters (brilliantly done in character) right through her later achievements. The show is dotted with interesting facts and information about Vera Lynn and her contemporaries. Victoria has great presence, she sings magnificently (think leading Broadway production level), the costumes are amazing. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. - David Scott, Ravida Group Business Development/Marketing Coordinator
Thank you for the amazing show that you have put your heart into singing those songs that are so close to residents who lived through the era. You have delivered Vera Lynn’s songs exceptional. You have captured the audience, our residents from start to finish with many can hear your voice lingered around. Your show was the talk of the home where many were still talking about how good it was. Our residents were so lucky to experience the true professional entertainer.
These are a few feedback from our residents, staff and manager: Amazing, well-presentation, thoughtful, great storyline, well-interact, beautiful, well-researched into Vera Lynn’ s music and life, it made me cry, absolutely loved it! - Eric Vu, Lifestyle Services Officer at Trevi Court Aged Care
